A Modular Approach for the Synthesis of Nanostructured Hybrid Materials with Tailored Properties: The Simultaneous Twin Polymerization

Abstract

A third twin: Homopolymers are formed by the copolymerization of two twin monomers. Using the new method of simultaneous twin polymerization, complex hybrid materials can be synthesized in a targeted manner (see scheme), in which, depending upon the combination of twin monomers used, nanostructured hybrid materials with different compositions and properties can be obtained.
